(11) Cross-linkage of collagen appears to be more important than amount of collagen in permitting striae in response to stretch.
(12) The olfactory bulbs receive centrifugal noradrenergic projections from the brainstem via the medial olfactory striae, which terminate in both main and accessory bulbs.
(13) A case of idiopathic striae distensae (ISD) is presented.
(14) He also shows hyperextensibility of joints, inguinal hernia, dissecting aneurysm of ascending aorta, dilatation of aortic ring, aortic and mitral insufficiency, myopia and striae distensae.
(15) Vertical corneal striae distributed across the posterior cornea are one of the objective signs of clinically unacceptable corneal swelling (greater than 6%) resulting from contact lens wear.
(16) The thin striae of Retzius consisted in narrow zones devoided of mineral material which extended obliquely through the prisms.
(17) These striae were eliminated by increasing the oxygen concentration at the anterior lens surface.
(18) Physical examination did not reveal typical Cushingoid symptoms such as moon face, central obesity and violaceous striae.
(19) A flattening and thinning of the striae albae surface and the almost complete disappearance of dermal papillae was observed in paraffin and thin sections.
(20) These striae were similar in appearance and time of occurrence to those observed in gel lens wearers.
Stride
Definition:
(v. t.) To walk with long steps, especially in a measured or pompous manner.
(v. t.) To stand with the legs wide apart; to straddle.
(v. t.) To pass over at a step; to step over.
(v. t.) To straddle; to bestride.
(n.) The act of stridding; a long step; the space measured by a long step; as, a masculine stride.
(2) The statistics underline the significant strides being taken by the industry to meet a government drive to reduce Britain's carbon emissions, although the scale of renewable energy subsidies remains controversial.
(3) Since the war, huge strides have been made in Sierra Leone.
(4) He said the generations of Americans had made significant strides toward rance tolerance, but added: "It doesn't mean we're in a post-racial society.
(5) Biomechanical analysis of the crosscountry techniques has developed from rather simple 2-dimensional kinematic descriptions of diagonal stride to complex measurement of skating forces and 3-dimensional motion.
(6) However, in the past five years great strides have been made in the use of electronics and computers to assist in the performance of routine tasks for the detection and diagnosis of periodontal diseases.
(7) Any national, state, or local efforts to design and develop new CPS training programs should take into account the significant strides made by these agencies.
(8) Cadbury became the world's largest confectionery company in 2003 after buying up a number of gum brands, including Trident and Stride, but ceded the number one spot to Mars when it took over gum maker Wrigley last year.
(9) Most countries have made notable strides in improving and expanding the cold chain, although cold chain failures have been identified through investigation of vaccine failures.
(10) From these results, it is evident that the profession has made significant strides in building a strong scientific data base to support the value of its clinical services.
(11) Over the last year, important strides were made in improving bioprocess monitoring using NADH fluorescence, viscosity, affinity techniques, enzyme and microbial sensors, calorimetry, flow injection analysis and bioluminescence.
(12) For both males and females stride length decreased, stride rate increased, and the period of non-support was also significantly less when running on a treadmill as compared to running overground.
(13) These results suggest that stride frequency affects ventilation to varying degrees dependent upon the subject population and that the mechanisms for the hyperpnea of moderate exercise operating in each of these subject populations involve a complex interaction of many factors.
(14) Papua New Guinea has made significant strides towards establishing a capacity in health systems research.
(15) Despite that, this area of retinal pharmacology has made significant strides and, although it is a story without an ending, it has had an exciting beginning.
(16) Mind you, many more passes like that, and there may not be, for De Vrij picks up the loose ball, strides forward, and batters a shot from distance wide right of goal.
(17) The kinematic analysis revealed non-significant results for hip, knee and ankle joint angles at touchdown for the various stride rates.
(18) Maximum horizontal velocities were usually attained at takeoff into the third- or second-last stride and not exclusively during the second-last stride, as previously reported.
(19) Normal pediatric kinematics and kinetics are provided with literature references for phasic electromyography and temporal and stride variables.
(20) I was looking for poise, confidence, striding it out rather than against the watch.
